BiMultitalented singer, musician, and producer, Blacq Prodigal gifts listeners with his latest single,
"For What You Have Done," featuring Tiffany Andrews & The Unit. Through his music, Blacq Prodigal welcomes listeners to the church community and the fulfillment of having a true connection with God.
Hailing from Punta Gorda, Florida, Blacq Prodigal delivers thoughtful, soul-awakening ballads
for all to enjoy. His talents reach beyond singing into the realm of songwriting, production, and
business management. A producer and owner of his production company, Church Boy Ent.,
Blacq Prodigal is no stranger to working hard for a cause he believes in. “Everyone has different
talents and gifts,” shares Blacq Prodigal. “I let my team use their talents in the best way they
can.” Alongside the musicians under his wing, Blacq Prodigal connects churches and events with
musicians to enable people to praise and worship anywhere.
Blacq Prodigal’s music is not only a lifelong passion but also his calling. “I was born into music
like I was born into church,” shares Blacq Prodigal. “My mom sang, and my dad was a musician.
Both are pastors at our church. I taught myself to play drums, bass guitar, lead guitar, and piano
just by being in church all the time. My father moved me around learning all the instruments.”
Despite mastery of many instruments, Blacq Prodigal lets the message lead the way in his
songwriting. His approach to writing always begins with the lyrics. Empowered with both
written and musical talent, Blacq Prodigal finds that music flows naturally once the words are
on the page. Through every song, he seeks to remain authentic to a higher calling. “I write
words because it’s a personal conversation with God,” shares Blacq Prodigal. “My music is a
message that’s given to me.”
“To me, it’s a love ballad to God,” Blacq Prodigal explains. “How I’m thankful for all the things
he’s done—good or bad. It’s always been a learning experience. He’ll bring me through those
experiences by living life.”
Blacq Prodigal wants listeners to know that being in love with God isn’t a bad thing. “I’m
thankful for what he’s done,” explains the artist. “People want him to do something for them.
I’m thankful for what he’s already done.” The single is a ballad focusing on the entire
relationship with God. His words both guide listeners to another way of life and reflect on his
own experiences.
Working with Tiffany Andrews, the featured artist on his single, was “a dream come true” for
Blacq Prodigal. “It was amazing working with her,” he shares. “Four years ago, I told my wife I
wanted to work with her on this.” Call it manifestation or divine intervention, Blacq Prodigal
was blessed with the opportunity he had hoped for.
Up next for Blacq Prodigal is the upcoming single “Goodbye to the Game.” The ballad reflects
on Blacq Prodigal’s time on the streets and how he’s long since moved forward. During his time
in prison, Blacq Prodigal was able to develop his vision for this project. “I wrote the ballad
because it’s part of my life,” he adds. “I’m not afraid or ashamed of it. By being able to relate to
the streets and in church, I’m trying to be the bridge that brings people back to God. If I can
return, everyone can return.”
